The victim is never at fault for the willful actions of another person. It's hard to judge a situation and how easy it may be for someone to avoid it when they could potentially be financially restricted or, in general, unable to properly express themselves like that. Not everyone has the same access to authority, and authority doesn't always help the right person. There is a lot of mistrust. It happens all the time.

It's never a victim's fault for the actions of someone else. They are the ones doing it. Roundabout ways to blame the victim do not really track.
